o39 [Action]
[Finally feeling better and able to go out, Okita was having quite a good time seeing everyone else's changes. It wasn't until he woke up this morning and tried to roll out of bed that he noticed something was wrong.
Very wrong.
But, perhaps people wouldn't notice.
Thus, Okita goes about his normal routine. As a woman. He's busy trying to cover that up, however, with a little padding around the waist and by keeping to his usual attire. Particularly attentive people, however, might notice he has a slight bust now and his voice is just a little higher than usual.
People can find him anywhere, from House 50 to the town getting supplies to the Welcome Center or even out on patrols.]

Oh, don't blame yourself, Ramirez-san. My illness had nothing to do with us being outside.
no subject
Still. I'm sure it didn't help.
no subject
Also, Souji is laughing again. And again, it might sound more girly than usual.]
I'm also sure my running out and about when I was actually sick is the real reason I got that bad. Don't worry about it so much, Ramirez-san. I thank you for your concern though. It's very cute.
no subject
And then he says that word. That word.
Cute.
And that's all he can hear.
There is no laughing back. Ramirez just FROWNS DISAPPROVINGLY AT HIM.]
Don't call me that.
no subject
He laughs again at the DISAPPROVING FROWN because he is so very used to such things.]
Sorry, sorry.
no subject
And like. Not have it come on by a nervous breakdown. That would be lovely.
Sigh.]
Never mind. Has anything strange happened to you?
[Because he does so hate surprises.]
no subject
Save for the nervous breakdown part. That is not so cute.]
A few things, but nothing major. Why? Have they happened to you?
[As if he'd tell his secret right away. B|]
no subject
Hahaha, oh you. Let's hope if Ramirez ever figures this out that he will be too busy laughing himself into a coma to be upset that you lied to him. 8(]
No, not at all. I think.
But I don't particularly like being taken by surprise. What's happened?
[NO SOUJI. NO ONE IS ALLOWED ANY SECRETS OR PERSONAL SPACE EVER. Unless it's him. B|]
no subject
Well, two of my friends seem to have switched places. Some people have become children and others are just very small. My friend Calcifer became a tomato.
[THAT IS NOT HOW RELATIONSHIPS WORK, RAMIREZ.]
no subject
...So nothing has happened to you?
[SHUT UP YES IT IS IT MUST BE.]
no subject
......................Does it seem like something has?
[IT IS NOT 8| FAILURE]
no subject
There is going to be an extremely awkward moment coming up where instead of answering, Ramirez in all his social grace and tact takes a step forward, bends down slightly, and just STARES INTENTLY at Souji with the most serious, scrutinizing look he can manage. Because something is off and he doesn't know what. DO YOU KNOW HOW IRRITATING THAT IS.
It is probably extremely uncomfortable. lol social boundaries. He can't get the hang of them.]
...Maybe.
no subject
Souji is leaning back a bit while Ramirez does the Sherlock thing, face is very much like in the icon.]
And have you figured it out?
no subject
REALLY. ANNOYING.
Also if Ramirez has noticed any sort of discomfort from him as a result of just abruptly closing distance, then he's certainly not doing anything about it.]
No.
But something is different.
no subject
And he is going to take a step back since he just noticed at the angle he's leaning at, his chest is a little more noticeable. Also, totally lying to cover it up.]
I did cut my hair the other day.
no subject
That's not it.
[He is quite adamant about that.]
no subject
Souji scoots back a little more and touches his hair, twisting a few strands of his bangs between his fingers.]
Really? I wonder what it is then.
no subject
...Although Ramirez is starting to feel that agitation. Very well then. He'll be nice and stop leaning over you like a creep.]
...Sorry. It's just...
...you sound strange.
[...But he hasn't met any genderbent people yet. The thought of Souji being female hasn't even crossed his mind.]
Are you sure you're not ill?
no subject
I'm quite sure. I didn't realize you paid so much attention.
no subject
...It's not exclusive to you. If I didn't know when something was amiss, I probably would have been killed by now.
no subject
Well, that's true. Same with me, I suppose.
At least this isn't something that will kill you.
no subject
He's never the type to laugh back. If anything, his look gets sharper.]
Then something is wrong.
[STOP LYING. D|]
no subject
Nothing big.
no subject
Then what's happened?
